Beyond Painting – Bruxelles Pub, Harry Street, Dublin

Posted by Chris Mc Morrow on Feb 06, 2018

Bruxelles opened in 1886 originally under the moniker the “Zodiac Lounge”. You can still see signs of its astrological origins on the glass panels behind the main bar which show each of the different star sign figures. There are flags hanging from its ceiling inside the bar of each country in the European Union.

Originally called the 'Zodiac' it was renamed 'Bruxelles' after the capital of Belgium when Ireland joined the European Union.
